The K-50M is a North Vietnamese licensed built copy of the Soviet PPSh-41 smg. The gun is identical to the original PPSH-41 except the differences are the Barrel Shroud, the holed sleeve hand guard that covers the barrel to prevent the hand from getting burned when barrel gets overheated (similar to mg42), is shortened by 3 inches along with the barrel as well. The wooden butt stock is replaced with a retractable metal stock with added wooden pistol grip. The gun could fire the 71 drum magazine, but is generally restricted to the 35 round magazine because the retracted stock prevents the drum from being used.
The technical modifications seems to be primarily to cut manufacturing costs. The gun is internally identical
This weapon should be added! An MP40 style PPSH, this is definitely exotic.
The weapon saw major service in the Vietnam war by soldiers on the Communist side.
